06. OSCAR'S FILE RENAMER lets you globally rename files, add sequential numbering (or even words) to the file names, change the extension, and undo accidental modifications. With its fast editing capabilities, it works just like a text editor and you can modify hundreds of files in short order. Download free at http://www.mediachance.com/free/renamer.htm .

07. GOOD50 is a search engine for us folks with poorer eyesight. The text font is larger and it also has a high contrast version and even saves energy on a CRT monitor. That's because a black background requires less power to display than a white one. Give it a try at http://www.good50.com/index.html .

It needs no installation and can be easily executed from the desktop, USB stick, or other memory device.

Comodo's answer to Google Chrome is their new browser, claimed to provide the same features of Chrome but also including a heightened level of security and privacy.
